Bodybuilding Legend Frank Zane Still Has a Clear Vision About His Fitness Goals at 81

The God of Aesthetics and three-time Mr. Olympia champion Frank Zane is back again with his insights on maintaining your physique in different seasons. Even at the age of 81, the Olympia champion has never backed down from giving his valuable advice and led young guns on the right path of fitness.

Zane recently shared an Instagram post about how his fitness goals had changed over the years. Through the post, he talked about how he had different approaches for the winter and maintenance seasons. Let us see what they are. 

Zane’s approach has evolved over the years

Captioning the image” Evolving fitness goals,” Zane shared how, following the previous methods while he was still competing, he reached his peak until the winter season of the year. Zane used to introspect and ask what he needed to do to improve himself and then work on the areas that needed his special attention. By following this method, he honed his physique to the finest. Years later, he changed his training methods according to his needs.

In the past, Zane focused more on his upper body and calf development. Using this method, the three-time Olympian focused on gaining more muscle definition and less calf size. He emphasized building his leg biceps as well. In later years, he changed his training method according to his age to stay fit and in shape.

The god of aesthetics is currently focusing on retaining his muscle definition. While following his new method at his age, he also looks to work on his abs to develop them in this maintenance season. Earlier, Zane had spilled the beans on how to develop a perfectly sculpted physique.

Zane also recommended taking pictures over time to check one’s progress. According to him, this will help you to stay motivated and focused on your goal of attaining perfection. Zane wants gymgoers to feel satisfied with their workouts and what makes them feel better after their workouts. This approach focuses on overall growth rather than growing one single muscle group, a reminder that even small changes can make big improvements in the journey to your goal.

As Zane continues to give out fitness advice to those on their bodybuilding journeys, one cannot deny how beneficial it is to them.
